I noticed it about a week or two ago. Made a mental note on its size and decided not to worry unless it looked like there might be a problem. Last Thursday, it appeared more pronounced. I decided to go ahead and get the pediatrician to take a look at it. Made the appt yesterday, and got in for today.

The doc said it is most probably a ganglionic cyst, and doesn't wanna play around with it because it will only get worse as time allows. Also, at 5 years old, Elf-boy isn't really doing a lot of writing yet. Better to get it taken care of now, while use of his hand won't be too limited.

I will have to get a pic of it to show you. It actually looks like he has a white marble under the skin on his wrist. The cyst protrudes about 1/4 to 1/2 inch.
